I couldn't put this book down...and really got into the characters, loved the setting, etc. There were some random story directions, and I think the ending left me a little unsatisfied. Ended just a little too abruptly. Still a great book by a great author.

I am beginning to like this author more and more. This is the second book I have read by this author, and I must say that I really like her writing style. Once again, just like Barefoot, I really liked this story. It was told really well and had a very good ending.

maybe the people on Nantucket have no morals, or maybe people really do act like animals, but the casual sex, the relationships these characters have seem unbelievable to me. Are we that desperate that we seek to read junk like this?

I have to say this was my least favorite Elin Hilderbrand book. It seemed to drone on and on and was difficult for me to get through. The story line and characters were boring and predictable.

I have enjoyed all of the other books by this author (I've read at least six others), but have to say this one was a huge disappointment.

This is my least favorite book by Elin Hilderbrand, one of my favorite authors. I frankly couldn't care about the characters, they made disastrous, life altering decisions and were extremely selfish. She's one of my favorite authors, but I wouldn't recommend this effort.

This was a very good book. Well written. It covers a lifetime of history in a day. Good summer read! Carol

A good vacation read. You can take a break for a bit and jump right back in, but stay interested enough to finish.

Drew me in and kept me captivated from the first chapter. The character development was well done. The story came to life and,let me part if it on every page.

I usually love her books, but this one just disappointing to me. It did not capture my interest like usual, and I did not care for the ending.

I am on an Elin Hilderbrand reading spree and The Love Season was not my favorite of hers. However, I really liked the audio narrator Christina Delaine and will definitely check out other books she has narrated.

In typical Elin Hilderbrand fashion, the novel takes place in Nantucket with a lot of food descriptions, a few love stories and a couple of cheating partners. I didn't like the ending, it was abrupt and didn't really conclude the story.
